What are the advertisement specs?

All ads must be .jpg images with their resolution optimized for the internet. Numerous Mac and other image apps for Windows make resizing and formatting images into the best resolution easy, especially if a firm is already assisting you with various graphics and ads elsewhere.

Home Page Slider Ad Size:  

756 pixels wide x 500 pixels high.

Side Column Ad Size: 

Single Side column ads are 300 p/w x 250 p/h.

You can, however, upload side column ads of any height up to 1,250 pixels or the height of 5 side ads. Combined Side-Column Ads are billed in increments of 250 pixels in height.

Example: a 300 px wide x 325 px high ad will be charged as two ads because you exceeded the single ad height of 250 pixels. So you could make this a 300 p/w x 500 p/h ad for the same price.

Search Result Slider Ad Size:

1,250 pixels wide x 580 pixels high. These are our largest ads, positioned at the top of the screen and visible at the peak of the customer’s search experience.

Can I refresh my ads when I want?

Absolutely! You can swap and refresh your ads of the same size at your convenience. This applies to the ad URL and any alt text as well. It's a great way to keep your content looking fresh and engaging!

Will my ads always appear in the same spot?
